Accreditation Programs - National Commission on Correctional Health Care

Benefits of NCCHC Accreditation

What Sets NCCHC Apart?

  • Survey teams are customized to the facility’s programs (e.g., mental health surveyors for extensive mental health programs, dentist surveyors for facilities with on-site dental care)
  • We can survey one facility at a time or the entire system in the span of a week, depending on client needs
  • Survey teams have specific expertise in correctional health care and each team includes a physician
  • NCCHC accreditation staff and surveyors have worked in corrections – we understand how to implement standards because we’ve used them and can offer pre- and post-survey support
  • Plus: free webinars on how to prepare for NCCHC accreditation, and for states that are bringing on numerous facilities, on-site, in-depth standards training
NCCHC is looking for outstanding correctional health professionals who would like to enhance their careers by becoming surveyors, lead surveyors or physician surveyors.
